In my 20's I worked graveyard shift in a convenience store. One night a guy came in who looked so much worse than Niki. He had no ears, no lips, a piece of his nose, no hair anywhere. He had 80% of his body burned in a horrible house fire and he miraculously lived. He was absolutely unique among all other people I have met in my life. I will never ever forget that man. Not just because of how he looked, but how he spoke so calmly about what happened to him. He was so at peace with his situation. He was really friendly and outgoing, and when he came to the counter to pay for his items, he just started telling me his story. I guess that's a mechanism he developed for getting through life. He knows everyone who sees him immediately knows he had something terrible happen to him and every single person is wondering what happened. So I guess he just decided to tell people as soon as he meets them, even if they don't ask. I chatted with him for maybe 10 or 15 minutes. It's been 20 years and I still think about that guy sometimes.

Was it helpful or hurtful? If its the latter, then why let that supercede the value of your own self esteem? Nah.

Welcome home Sir

I once flew to Vienna for vacation using Niki Airline. My wife and I found it really funny that they went with this concept all the way since all instructions and even weather infos on the plane were voiced by Niki Lauda himself. But how would he know the actual current weather situation over the alps? Has he voiced hundreds upon hundreds of weather files to be prepared for every condition? So it finally dawned on me: The pilot, the guy who‘s flying me and my wife to our honeymoon location was none other than Niki Lauda himself. And that’s precisely what happened. He greeted most of the passengers personally when we landed and even took pictures with some and signed tickets and stuff. What a surreal start to our vacation. What a humble and straight forward strong person this guy was. Truly inspiring what he achieved in life.

Just met him in Vienna when he was bringing his dog to the vet. Surreal... What a legend!

Its what comes out of you and your character that if you allow it makes you an ugly person. Those guys drove death machines back then. Safety was just not developed yet like today. His will to survive was astonishing considering what he went through in recovery.

When you get used to seeing a person and how they look, your perception of them becomes normalized.

Fast forward 15 years and we are married now and am still very attracted to her, but she certainly is not as beautiful as I once perceived her to be, even thou she hasn't changed much. My visual perception of her has normalized. And that's how many of us see Niki Lauda. Yeah, obviously he suffered burning and we recognize that, but who cares? He's a living legend, and I am sure he's a good person with great character and that's all that matters.

He was never ugly, such a well spoken guy. Treat all people with respect regardless of what they look like

When the reporter asked the question, "What does your wife think?" Mr. Lauda should have beat the hell out of him.

Niki Lauda is a Legend..he' s my hero since I was a kid...

Lauda,a hero,a gladiator..all respect,RIP Niki..❤🙏

Wow. It dawned on me, as I was listening to Niki explain his first emotions after seeing his burned head, just _how_ difficult it must be to accept such a deformation and live a life of loving and positivity afterwards. I dont think its down to ego, in fact I believe it's most likely a feeling of being different to your species which must leave burn victims feeling like they're kinda sub human? I'm not a psychologist, I'm just sympathising as best I can. It must be a horrendous feeling to know you'll never see YOUR face again, and people will look at you with horror and shock for the test of your life.... Just imagine that for a minute... Thst is actually beyond our comprehension, but I think I would become a very angry, bitter, socially withdrawn and destroyed with self pity, and I'm just being honest. Shit man, I'm choking up just *imagining* it! Niki's strength of character is humbling, for him to not only accept his misfortune but to actively use it to highlight the risks we take as a species. He really was a quite incredible man. God bless you Mr Lauda, and may God keep you close until the end of time.

Daniel Brühl, the guy who played Niki in the movie Rush, actually mentioned this in an interview. That some people around set didn’t realize he was wearing prosthetics, and got really shocked and looked away when he walked past them, and it helped him experience what Niki went through all those years. How ppl look away, look disgusted, gasp, act shocked etc. absolute no respect for what could’ve happened or his feel rings whatsoever.

If by some chance I ever see or meet this legend, then I would probably stare but in awe of the man in my presence.

You have to appreciate how well Michael Bruhl emulated his voice and persona in Rush.

As an apprentice I worked with a guy my age (17) from Vietnam. He had burns from head to toe from napalm. Was hard to look at him at first but he had the same attitude as Nicky. This is me. I’d like to meet that guy again after 40 years. I didn’t know it at the time but he had an amazing influence on my life.

I just saw a friend of mine who is a classics F1 Car Racer, battle and fight Nicki's 1984 Championship winning McLaren around Silverstone. It was truly a sight to witness. The fight they had around copse and Maggots and Becketts just reminds me of Lauda himself. Such a warrior. None of us could ever imagine what he went through, but its easy for people to point and call another ugly, we must remember the ignorant people who can't bother to be kind only point and call others ugly to make themselves feel better - as they desperately run from their own insecurities. I hope Nicki's story gets spread around for the rest of humanity as it truly teaches a timeless lesson. May he rest in peace, it was an honour to watch you car race - Nick Lauda.

What a fucking warrior

I know who you are and what you do ! I do not care how you look ! Your one of the greatest drivers ever with such a history that makes you attractive!

Not ugly Niki, you are a wounded warrior who may be the most talented driver of all time. Thank you

Rest in paradise Niki! You were an amazing driver and an amazing person, I'm glad you could see past the negative and continue doing what you love

What 2 jackasses have disliked this video? I dont understand why people dislike somthing, if you dont like it then just watch somthing else dont ruin an amazing interview with one of histories best f1 driver. And a truly good person who always speak his mind.

Its not about that, its about showing respect for an amazing individual. Its whats wrong with this internet age we are living through, people have lost the ability to respect one another especially when it comes to videos on youtube. If you did not like the video then dont watch it whats the problem? If you do not like the person write a comment and state your argument.

3 times formula 1 world champion, in the time when cars were immensly powerfull and had very little safety... this man lived on the edge, he was obsessed with being the best, respect for his legacy and the inspiration this man gave to other great pilots that came after him in the 80s and 90s.

I think the inhalation of the heat and toxic fumes are what ultimately ended his life early. I loved that guy`s determination and outlook. Phenomenal driver, saw him win at Long Beach in 1982. I had some super 8 film footage of him and James Hunt from Long Beach in 1976, they were hanging out after practice near the pits and talking. Always wondered what happened to that footage. RIP Champ. :(

R.I.P Niki Lauda 1 year ago, Legend forever 🙏🙏🙏🇦🇹❤

Absolute legend!!!

legend

I worked at a hotel that served a hospital that had patients with severe facial and other trauma. It was very hard at first to deal with, but I finally figured out exactly what he said: they just want to be treated normally. I'm kind of a jokester and a tease, and I even started doing that. I remember one severely burned lady starting to cry just because I'd made her laugh. Just remember they didn't choose that, and tomorrow it could be you.

As he ages he looks very natural and great (only the ear gives it up), otherwise I'd love to be in the shape he is when I am that age

The scars are from a battle he fought. Warrior and living legend.

I don’t think he’s ugly at all, because beauty comes from the inside and not someone’s outer appearance and the man is a legend and a warrior.

RIP a very inspiring man.

Every interview with Niki Lauda I've ever read or watched in my life, since I was a kid, I testified many moments os his wisdom. He was the driver whom I learned a lot about life and how to top many real bad situations.

Long Live Niki Lauda!!

He should have become a huge movie star as well, in addition to his driving achievements

RIP NIKI You never had to explain for the fans, we knew why you were burned and I only looked at you with admiration.

Graham is such a kind and thoughtful interviewer. You’re a sweetheart Graham.

When men were men! Well done Niki, you're an inspiration to many of us.
